Received this letter:

This confirms that your Application to Sponsor a Member of the Spouse or Common-Law Partner In Canada Class was received by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)

As a resident of the province of Québec, you must submit an undertaking application to the Provincial Government. To download the required forms, please consult the Ministère de l'Immigration, de la Francisation et de l'Intégration (MIFI) website at : http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/family-reunification/index.html

Complete the required forms and promptly submit them to the MIFI at the address provided in the provincial guide within 30 days from the date of this letter. Do not submit any of the MIFI forms to this office as they will only be returned to you.

You must enclose a copy of this correspondence with your undertaking application to MIFI. If you received this communication via email, please note that another copy will not be mailed to you. You may print a copy to be enclosed with your undertaking application to MIFI.
However, the application form for the quebec undertaking states a requirement of a letter from IRCC that confirms the sponsor's eligibility, ie. sponsor approval letter. Should we go ahead and send in the CSQ application forms with this letter attached, or wait for the SA? What if it takes more than 30 days to receive the SA? (eligibility review not started yet)

No, they don't require the full Sponsor Approval. They just require what you received - the invitation from IRCC to apply for the CSQ. You can go ahead and complete this step! Don't wait!

I did the sponsorship twice and the first one was in 2018 and it was that exact letter I got too (that sponsorship got withdrawn in the end). The latest one was with the sponsor approval.

It clearly say to do the CSQ application so don't wait,.
